MSC Magnifica
Sail date: April 30, 2018
As stated we had an excellent cruise; there were some glitches with shore excursions but we would certainly recommend MSC Magnifica and this itinerary. The ship is well maintained and well managed - shows were excellent as was excursions (Malaga excursion with Flamenco show was first class.
This itinerary allows a taste of north and south Western Europe. Very interesting!

We had a wonderful Greek Island Cruise.
We really enjoyed the cruise. Weather in Greek Islands from late spring is warm to hot while there's lots of history and culture to experience. Ship was excellent - food, shows etc. We will look forward to our return.

Western Mediterranean Cruise ex Barcelona.
Norwegian compares well to other cruise companies. The Norwegian Epic is well appointed and had a functioning help desk while the itinerary and excursions were most interesting. We were particularly impressed by the food and restaurant dining, the latter consistently gourmet style.

We cruised late in the season - it rained and rained. Sea was somewhat rough. However we enjoyed the ship and the excursions. We would recommend sailing in mid summer.
Cruise tips
Norwegian Spirit
Purchase a Balcony.
For a major cruise port city Southampton is disappointing. Government and Council need to upgrade facilities.
Mont Saint-Michel is one of the wonders of the world.
We walked to the lookout and visited a 400 year old palace museum.
Think Malaga has it all - beach, shopping, history etc.
Wanted to visit the Rijks Museum but no time - overnight stay.
Visited the Kunsthalle Art Gallery which was excellent.
Seville is a great tourist city. Alcazar Palace is another wonder of the world.
MSC Magnifica
Top deck atrium is worth a visit.

Buy a drinks package.
Very good.

Very disappointing. We spent several days trying to find worthwhile attractions. British government needs to spend more money on council and the town. It's a working class area and not a tourist town.
Excellent city.
Livorno (Florence & Pisa), Italy
Fabulous Renaissance city.
It's all good.
If time permits use the hop on off bus.

Enjoy the cruise - be optimistic and you'll have a great time.
